    US Southwest Lunar Eclipse Clean & Camp

    Work has been pretty crazy this week! Don't think I'm going to make it, definitely not at 2 and probably not for the viewing either. Sorry.

    US Southwest Lunar Eclipse Clean & Camp

    If I'm up past 1:30AM shooting pics, I won't make it to work by 7:30AM, so would need Friday off to sleep in. I'm like 80% planning on going. Besides, depending on weather, might bring my kayak and do a little paddling on Friday.

    Which BDR was your favorite?

    About five and a half days. Our group did the whole route, I personally didn't do Ophir Pass (long story). We were doing north to south so that was at the end of the trip. How much time have you spent in New Mexico? If you haven't spent much then do that instead!

    Which BDR was your favorite?

    So far I've done New Mexico, Colorado and Wyoming. I love New Mexico and travel there often (I live in Oklahoma) so while I enjoyed that BDR, it didn't cover much new territory for me. Wyoming was pretty good but had long sections not as interesting. Which leads me to Colorado. Again, I have...

    US West *Trip Limit Reached (6 Rigs Max)* Gold Butte-Grand Parashant/Grand Canyon Rim-Nevada-Arizona-Utah

    Changed that up, I have decided to spend the two days at Snow Canyon SP instead and explore some of the lava tubes, etc. I've been to Valley of Fire SP before and it's pretty nice but figured it would be too similar to what we're driving through. My plan now is to meet the group at Gold Butte...

    US West *Trip Limit Reached (6 Rigs Max)* Gold Butte-Grand Parashant/Grand Canyon Rim-Nevada-Arizona-Utah

    I'm not in charge of anything related to this, but 100% of the trips I've been on, which is a lot, I have NEVER seen everyone show up who signed up 3+ months in advance. I'm betting you'll be able to go when someone inevitably drops.

    US West *Trip Limit Reached (6 Rigs Max)* Gold Butte-Grand Parashant/Grand Canyon Rim-Nevada-Arizona-Utah

    Just booked Valley of Fire for Mon & Tue and plan on meeting the group at Loves or Gold Butte Road on Wednesday morning, will figure it out later.

    US West *Trip Limit Reached (6 Rigs Max)* Gold Butte-Grand Parashant/Grand Canyon Rim-Nevada-Arizona-Utah

    Just signed up. Got a little taste of this area a few years ago and have been wanting to go back, unfortunately rain was an issue and we had to turn back early. The clay out there is super slick when wet, put one of the tacos into a ditch.

    Kayaks- Inflatable, Rigid, Folding…whaddya have and how you like it

    I have a inflatable Sea Eagle Razorlite 393. It's a drop stich kayak and is fast in the water. I use it mostly on lakes. I had an ORU fold up but didn't like the seat and the foot pegs were just a loose bar across the boat. Sold it. The 393rl has real foot pegs. I weigh about 230lbs so that's a...

    Planning a weekend trip in Oklahoma

    Keep in mind that state WMA areas such as Sandy Sanders require an active hunting or fishing license and not all allow camping and even the ones that do have blackout dates during certain hunts. There are very few dispersed camping areas in Oklahoma except for the National Forest Land in the SE...
